Chapter 3: Past Becomes Present

"Get out of my way, slut." Ed growled at the teenager.

"Let me think about it..." Elena replied sarcastically, "No."

Ed lunged at her, ready to beat the shit out of the girl who was standing between him and his daugher who he did not care for.

Elena smirked and grabbed his arms and swung him around her, making him stumble in the opposite direction.

Elena cracked her knuckles and her neck as the group watched her in awe and perhaps slightly in fear.

"I'm going to give you one last chance. If you walk away and stay away from your family and everyone else here, I won't hurt you." Elena threatened.

Daryl stopped cleaning his arrows and looked up. 'Damn, this girl got guts,' he thought, nodding thoughtfully.

Ed was pissed. No one should be able to get away with talking trash to him. He made a fist and attempted to punch the little bitch, aiming for the nose. Attempted.

Elena caught his fist in midair and gripped it tightly. Ed tried top pull his hand back, but Elena kept a tight grip on his hand. She squeezed it slightly. She broke his hand. Ed screamed in pain. Elena quickly sped him into a nearby tree and started choking him. Damon and Stefan were staring at her in shock. She moved as fast as they could!

"Let me rephrase that." Elena hissed menacingly. "If you agree to stay away from your family and everyone else here, and actually start working and not sitting on you ass all day, I might consider not killing you."

Ed at this point was turning blue, so he glared at her and nodded. Elena gave him a light shove and he stumbled away.

Everyone was silent in shock and you could hear nothing but one person slow clapping. Elena spun around and groaned at the person clapping.

"Little Elena does have fire, even as a human," Katherine smirked at her doppelganger.

"Katherine," Elena stated bitterly, "The world goes to shit, and somehow you manage to still be a pest."

Katherine ignored Elena and spoke, "Well you did manage to kill Klaus, so my threats have gone down to zero, considering the zombies can't hurt me."

Elena groaned in annoyance "Can you just leave us alone? You've been a pain in the ass for far too long."

"I could, but I don't want to." Katherine started circling around Elena. Elena tensed up and looked over at Damon for help. He didn't budge. Elena felt a pang of hurt go through her.

"Let me introduce myself. I'm Katherine Pierce. Elena's my doppelganger." Katherine stated to the confused people.

"Damon?" Elena asked, slightly scared and looking for help. Katherine smirked even more.

"You don't know what to do, do you Damon?" Katherine asked, sounding more like a statement, "You have feelings for us both, and you don't know who to choose."

Elena paled. "Damon, this isn't true," When he yet agin didn't reply Elena's heart sank. "Who do you choose?" She asked softly, afraid to hear the answer.

Damon sighed. "Look Elena-" He started but Elena cut him off.

"It's fine, I get it." Elena managed to get out. She took off the ring Damon gave her when she needed a daylight ring as a vampire and threw it at him. She turned around and put a hand over her mouth as she walked away almost in tears.

Meanwhile, Katherine smirked at Damon, who gave her a small, sad smile.

"Well too bad for you because I don't like you back." Katherine said, her smirk growing. She turned to look at Shane and gave him a flirtatious wink and with that, she sped off.

Damon's smile was wiped off from his face, as he ran off towards the direction Elena left, obviously trying to get her back.

Hey guys,

Sorry this is so short. I just felt this was the perfect place to leave off. I'll be updating soon if possible. I don't think this is the best chapter in the world, but the story will get better, I promise you :)

P.S. If anyone wanted something specific to happen in the story, I would love some ideas!
